If religions were TV channels atheism is turning the TV off.

Excellent, I've heard Rebecca Watson mention this on the Skeptics guide podcast but she was talking about a Galsgow pub. I thought at the time I'd like to go but Glasgow's a bit far for me and I didn't realize they happened anywhere else. I play in a band over Leeds way so I'm there quite a lot. I'll definitely get myself along to one sometime. September's one entitled 'How to be a Psychic Con-man' particularly appealled to me as I thought it'd be a good one to bring my psychic-curious girlfriend along to! Then I realized I'm protesting the sodding pope on the 18th!  roflol

Hey wow! They do an event in Cambridge.  :D  It is in one of my favourite pubs as well.

Thanks for the heads-up on this Tank. I'll certainly be attending.
QuoteI find it mistifying that in this age of information, some people still deny the scientific history of our existence.

Ok, cheers Chris! I'll give you a shout on here when I can make it along to one.
